Ranney + Rimington will ensure that your home is not only protected by properly installed exterior products but also has ‘curb appeal’.

A cold winter or wet season will usually tell you when it is time – or overdue – for a new roof, siding, windows or doors. We believe it is far better to be pro-active in the protection of your home and simultaneously accomplish aesthetically pleasing improvements.

Exterior Work, Windows & Doors

When installing a new roof we always recommend using only the finest materials with the longest warranties and upgrade to proper venting if it doesn’t already exist. (And to never cover over an existing roof to save money) We take care to explain the best options to prevent ice damming and interior attic mold, which can be common problems. Asphalt architectural shingles are the most common, but we are skilled in any type of roof application including cedar shingles and rubber roofs.

Commonly used siding choices include cedar shingles, cedar clapboard, cement board or vinyl covering. We can help recommend what is best for your needs depending on the weather exposure of your home. We always only use the proper manufacture recommended installation techniques of siding and roofing, including such seemingly obvious practices as using stainless nails for siding and making sure roof shingles are sufficiently attached to withstand the harsh weather conditions Cape Cod can face.

Unfortunately these basic methods are not always the norm. Our expert craftsmen will install trim that is best suited for your siding and roof choices. We work with the finest guaranteed pre-primed wood products and also composite trim. Composite trim materials are especially appealing as it will never rot and nor needs paint. It is installed with stainless fasteners and cortex plugs. It is the perfect choice for a maintenance-free home.

We work with all the window and door distributors and can help you decide on the design and manufacturer of any window, French door, slider or entry door that best fits your needs.

Outdoor rinse stations are a popular addition to the exterior of homes on Cape Cod. Privacy surrounds can be as simple as a stockade fence type enclosure or custom crafted to fit into the exterior look of the rest of the home.
